Script variable help, Varying number of arguments to excute script
Hi Guy's.
Hopefully someone can help me with what I am trying to archieve.
So situation currently is, I have a script already setup however I have another script that sits infront of it.
The main script basically goes and searchs multiple platforms for a list of entered data.
In order to set off the second script i need to be able to read the list of entered data and then enter it in a certain format. Details below
user enters the list of details for checking in the below format as an example
When they press enter the command needs to format it as per below
This will then work and is what I currently have working, My issue is they may only have for example 3 bits of data to check however as I have set arguements for 1,2,3,4 and 5 so the script wont run.
Does anyone know how I am able to list the arguments however even if they are not all there still run the script but just not including the missing arguement bits.
Any help you can offer would be much appreciated.
Thanks

I've created an awk script that handles a varying number of search strings handed to it as command line parameters ($1 $2 etc). There may be 1, or 2 or 3 or more. A simplified version of the script is:
awk -v TYP="$1 $2 $3 $4 $5 $6" '
BEGIN {
CTYP = split (TYP,TYPP," ")
}

Hello, I was wondering if it were possible to call arguments passed to a script using a variable.
For example:
sh script.sh yes no good bad
x=$#
while
do
echo (last argument, then second last etc until first argument)
let x=($x-1)
done
should print out
bad
good
no (4 Replies)

script
SCRIPT(1) BSD General Commands Manual SCRIPT(1)NAME
script -- make typescript of terminal session
SYNOPSIS
script [-a] [-f] [-q] [-t] [file]
DESCRIPTION
Script makes a typescript of everything printed on your terminal. It is useful for students who need a hardcopy record of an interactive
session as proof of an assignment, as the typescript file can be printed out later with lpr(1).
If the argument file is given, script saves all dialogue in file. If no file name is given, the typescript is saved in the file typescript.
Options:
-a Append the output to file or typescript, retaining the prior contents.
-f Flush output after each write. This is nice for telecooperation: One person does `mkfifo foo; script -f foo' and another can super-
vise real-time what is being done using `cat foo'.
-q Be quiet.
-t Output timeing data to standard error. This data contains two fields, separated by a space. The first field indicates how much time
elapsed since the previous output. The second field indicates how many characters were output this time. This information can be used
to replay typescripts with realistic typing and output delays.
The script ends when the forked shell exits (a control-D to exit the Bourne shell (sh(1)), and exit, logout or control-d (if ignoreeof is not
set) for the C-shell, csh(1)).
Certain interactive commands, such as vi(1), create garbage in the typescript file. Script works best with commands that do not manipulate
the screen, the results are meant to emulate a hardcopy terminal.
ENVIRONMENT
The following environment variable is utilized by script:
SHELL If the variable SHELL exists, the shell forked by script will be that shell. If SHELL is not set, the Bourne shell is assumed. (Most
shells set this variable automatically).
SEE ALSO csh(1) (for the history mechanism), replay(1).
HISTORY
The script command appeared in 3.0BSD.
BUGS
Script places everything in the log file, including linefeeds and backspaces. This is not what the naive user expects.
